hello everyone
I just bought a 1994 z22, 2.2, auto (ya I know), my buddy used to have a z24 sunbird, standard, real nice car, was the reason why I wanted a cavalier/sunbird 94 especially, I dont much care for the new style
I dont plan to keep the car for too long, spend too much money on it etc, already cost a fair bit to get on the road, car was a grand, about another grand to get it going, I would like to fix it up a bit and sell it in a while, buy a z24 standard, which I would put money into, etc
One problem with the car right now, I think its the transmission, when its in motion its ok, some vibration on the start, when its stationary in drive it vibrates pretty hard, I usually pop it in neutral when im at a light to stop it, also when you really push it the tranny/(engine/valves?) makes a clacky clack sound.......could this be the torque converter.......multiple problems
any feeback is appreciated, greeting, any and all
peace

transmission fluid is full and looks clean, smells fine, was thinking about putting some additive in it though i didnt want to possible over-fill it, 10bux isnt much but is it really worth that
